After resting, the three of them continued to move forward, this section of the road, Jiang Qiao and Jiang Li were obviously silent a lot, only Ah Le, the child, chattered non-stop along the way, Jiang Qiao thought about the mountain ghost in his heart, Jiang Li was worried about the black gas in his heart, the two of them had their own thoughts, but they didn't feel that the mountain road was rugged and difficult to walk.

When the two of them came to their senses, they could already see the cross at the top of the towering church.

"Right there." Ah Le shouted.

The two of them looked up at the cross hidden in the green branches, and for some reason, they both had a premonition in their hearts that the truth was about to surface.

After walking for another half hour, the church seemed to be close in front of me, but it was not easy to really get close to it. Especially since they had to walk through a black forest.

The black forest, it's not that the trees in the forest are black, it's just that the trees look at least 100 years old, the trees are covered with moss, I don't know what kind of species, the trunks are straight and high, and the huge canopy is one after another, blocking the sky and the sun.

Jiang Qiao looked at the dim forest, and felt a little stunned, suddenly she felt that the corners of her clothes were gently pulled, she turned her head and looked, it turned out to be Ah Le. He also looked at Lin Zi with a look of fear, Jiang Qiaoqiang smiled, patted Ah Le's head, and said, "It's okay, isn't it just a small forest, okay, let's go in." ”

With that, she took the lead and walked in.

As soon as the three of them walked into the black forest, they felt an inexplicable feeling of discomfort in their hearts, and they always felt as if the trees were looking down on them with eyes. Jiang Qiao and Ah Le's eyes couldn't adapt to the sudden dimness for a while, and they could only rely on the little glimmer that leaked from the layers of branches and leaves, barely seeing clearly.

"There's something weird about this wood."

Jiang Qiao and Ah Le walked forward as if they were blind, and suddenly their wrists were grabbed, and their hearts were just pinched, when they heard Jiang Li's voice ringing in their ears. She patted her head, almost forgetting the special nature of Jiang Li's eyes.

She pulled Ah Le to follow behind Jiang Li, and the halo leaking from the branches and leaves was only enough to see the small area of the environment in front of her. The ground was covered with a thick layer of dead leaves, and the ground under the dead leaves was a little collapsed, and if you were not careful, your feet would sink in it and you would not be able to move.

"Why is this forest so quiet, sister?" After all, Ah Le was still young, and he was terrified all the way, and couldn't help muttering.

Jiang Qiao suddenly realized that Jiang Li meant what Lin Ziwei meant. There was no sound in the forest except for their footsteps, not to mention the sound of small animals, not even the sound of the wind and the sound of leaves.

It was as if they had stepped into another silent dimension.

As soon as this idea came out, Jiang Qiao's whole body was cold and upside down, she didn't care about looking at the road, her eyes kept staring back and forth at the big trees around her, and she always felt that there seemed to be a pair of eyes peeping at them hidden in the thick trees surrounded by one person.

The three of them went deeper and deeper, and soon lost their way inside. Jiang Qiao said nervously: "I'm careless, I didn't bring dry food, I didn't bring a compass or other camping tools, what if I get trapped here?" Ah Le, don't you know the way? ”

Ah Le poked his head out from behind and said, "I usually walk to the top of the church we saw just now, and I don't go to the church, I thought it was very close, how do I know that there is such a forest here." Sister, I want to go home. ”

Jiang Qiao comforted the bitter Ah Le, grabbed Jiang Li, who was still walking forward, and asked with a frown, "Why don't we go back and find a way." ”

Jiang Li looked ahead, turned his head and said in a deep voice: "No, the exit is in front." After speaking, his footsteps not stopped, but accelerated forward.

Jiang Qiao sighed helplessly, and pulled Ah Le to speed up, Jiang Li's speed was so fast that Jiang Qiao almost needed to trot to keep up. She squinted her eyes as she ran, and where there was an exit, the woods were still dim and blurry, and she couldn't see a hint of light.

Suddenly, a dazzling burst of sunlight shone on them, and Jiang Qiao's eyes closed uncomfortably, as if he had been stimulated by something, and tears flowed down his eyes.

She looked at Ah Le and Jiang Li, Ah Le's situation was the same as her, she was constantly wiping her tears, and Jiang Li's expression was still calm under her sunglasses, and she couldn't see anything wrong.

"We ... Why did we come out all of a sudden? Jiang Qiao wiped the tears on his face with his sleeve.

"Where is this, sister." Ah Le squinted his eyes and looked around, "Is that a church?" We're here! Sister, we're here! ”

Jiang Qiao hurriedly opened his eyes, which were already fascinated by tears, and outside the black forest was the simple and majestic church.

Jiang Li had already taken the lead in walking towards the church, and Jiang Qiao and Ah Le also hurriedly followed.

From a distance, I only feel that this is a serious church, especially the last time Jiang Qiao and A Le came from the west end of the mountain, although they couldn't find the way to the church, they could just see the panoramic view of the church. Bamboo shoot ornaments, crosses, stained glass, Jesus, carved gates, all there. So even if some parts don't look too similar, you can recognize it as a church at a glance.

But today, when I looked closer, I found that this two-story church is still very different from the Western church in appearance and structure, its walls are all composed of sandy clay and wood, the roof is covered with black tile belts instead of exquisite Western-style carvings, and the white walls and black tiles look solemn and lifeless.

This is not what a normal church looks like. Jiang Qiao looked familiar, and suddenly remembered that the material and method of this building were not exactly the same as the houses in the village.

She touched the touch of the white wall with her hand in disbelief, absolutely yes. This church must have been built by the people of the village. Strangely, if this is the case, why is it that no one in the village has ever mentioned it, and even Ah Le does not know about the existence of this church?

The carved door of the church was locked, and the Ah Le people sneaked around to the stained-glass window and jumped up and down to look in.

"There was no one inside. Sister, let's go in from here. Ah Le beckoned them both to come over.

Jiang Qiao bent over and walked gently to Ah Le's side, and sure enough, she found that the lock on a window was a little loose, and she pulled it lightly.

"Bang la la blah."

I don't know if it's too old, the wooden frame on the window has been blown by the wind and rain, and it has long been unable to bear the weight of the stained glass, and it directly falls to the ground, making a huge sound.

Jiang Qiao immediately pressed Ah Le and squatted under the window, this movement frightened her heart almost stopped, and she herself didn't understand why she would be so light-hearted in front of a church where there was no one, like a thief.

After waiting for a minute and not hearing any movement, Jiang Qiao quietly raised his head and looked in from the empty window frame, the church was pitch black, and it really didn't look like someone was inside.

She looked at Jiang Li, not far away, looking at a certain place in the church in a daze, she thought about it, and boldly gently climbed in through the window, and Ah Le also deftly climbed in.

The furnishings in the church were no different from ordinary churches, there was dust everywhere, and the dust brought by the two of them made Jiang Qiao's nose itch for a while.

Suddenly, she heard a gentle bird call coming from a certain part of the church, Jiang Qiao hurriedly ran in the direction of the sound, but when she got to the front, she realized that the sound was actually coming from a wall.

"How is this sound so familiar, where have you heard it?" Jiang Qiao tilted his ears sideways and muttered to himself.

"What sound?" Ah Le asked nervously next to him.

"Yes ... Be... Be... The sound of a robin in my dreams! Jiang Qiao suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the white wall in front of him.
